A/N: so this chapter is the seconde part of last chapter.
I saw in the review that some of you didn't like how Callie was treating Arizona. The thing is she's not doing it on purpose. She just needs time to trust Arizona again. The fact that Arizona came back with a perfectly good reason of why she left doesn't mean that Callie will forget that she left and all the things she went through. It won't be realist if Igor her jump in Arizona's arm as soon as Arizona told her the truth.
So, yeah just be a little more patient, things will change soon.
Oh and there's kinda smut at the end of the chapter ;)
As usualThanks to jesswilldo1 for her help.
Chapter 25:
Arizona Robbins:
That night Arizona stayed at Callie's house until Sofia was put to bed. She was about to leave as soon as she saw the interaction between Callie and her girlfriend, but Sofia insisted that she stays until she's asleep. Who was Arizona to refuse her little girl? Especially when she gave her the same look Callie used to give her when she wanted something.
So Arizona ignored the heartbreak she felt every time she looked at Callie and put on a smile for her daughter.
Luckily it wasn't long before it was time for Sofia to go to bed and Arizona was more than happy to tuck her in.
"I'm happy that you came, it was the best birthday ever!" Sofia exclaimed sleepily once Arizona finished reading her the bed time story. Arizona smiled bending to kiss Sofia's forehead who immediately wrapped her arms around Arizona's neck engulfing her in a hug.
"I'm so glad I finally got to meet you." Arizona said after being released by Sofia.
"Will I see you again Arizona?" The little girl asked.
"Of course you will." Arizona said caressing the little girl's face and making her smile. "But now you have to go to sleep, ok?"
"Goodnight." Sofia said before Arizona stood up, wishing Sofia a goodnight as well.
Arizona was startled when she turned around and saw Callie standing at the doorway, clearly having been here for a while and listened to their conversation. Arizona recovered quickly and walked past Callie letting the brunette wish Sofia a goodnight.
"You leaving blondie?" Arizona heard someone say when she reached the living room. Looking up she saw that it was Callie's friend Mark. He was sitting on the couch, a beer in hand.
"It's Arizona." She said curtly not liking the nickname at all. She barely knew the guy and he was talking to her as if they grew up together.
"Uh sorry, Arizona." He said with a charming smile making Arizona scowl at him. "How's your arm?" He then genuinely asked when he saw that Arizona wasn't about to talk to him.
Arizona relaxed a little seeing the genuine interest in the man's eyes before answering. "It's seen better days she said trying to joke which made Marks smile. "Thanks by the way for the skin graft, it looks less hideous now."
"Pfft, I was just doing my job." Mark say dismissing the thanks. There was comfortable silence before Mark broke it once again. "Do you want a beer?" He asked pointing to the beer in his hand.
"No thanks I have to go, I'm just waiting for Calliope." Mark just nodded, snickered at Arizona calling Callie 'Calliope.' He went back to watching TV while Arizona stood there awkwardly waiting for Callie to come down.
Soon enough she heard footsteps from the staircase.
"Hey, you're leaving?" Callie asked when she saw Arizona standing in front of the front door.
"Yeah, it's getting late and I have to walk." Arizona said. Truth be told she wanted to get out of there as soon as possible. Every time she looked at Callie, the scene she witnessed in the backyard kept replying over and over and she was tired of being tortured. She was tired of suffering. She's been in pain since she woke up in the hospital bed and she wanted things to change.
"Oh ok." Callie said walking with Arizona to the door. "Do you want me to give you lift?" The brunette asked, feeling guilty for letting Arizona walk all the way to Teddy's place.
"No thank you, I need some fresh air and beside Teddy doesn't live that far away."
Arizona opened the door and stepped out with Callie following behind. She turned around and looked a Callie. The brunette seemed nervous like she wanted to say something but didn't how. Not knowing what to say, Arizona waited patiently for Callie to talk.
"Thanks for coming today, you have no idea what it means to Sofia." Callie started.
"You don't have to thank me. I finally met my daughter and it meant the world to me too. Sofia is-she-she's perfect." Arizona said with a smile on her face popping her dimples. "You did an amazing job." She added making Callie blush.
"Yeah well character wise she's all you. She's as stubborn, sassy and smart as you." Callie said laughing and making Arizona laugh too.
"Maybe but she's as kind and as beautiful as you-" Arizona blurted out and immediately closed her mouth. She closed her eyes and cursed herself for being so stupid. "I'm- sorry-"
"That's ok." Callie dismissed the apology. "By the way Arizona, about last time-"
"Calliope… we don't have to talk about that." Arizona interrupted her. "that was stupid of me, I shouldn't have assumed that you would've waited. I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable." Just thinking about last time made Arizona cringe.
"That's the thing Arizona, if I had known I would've waited for you, it could've been 20 years and I would've still waited for you but I didn't know and I was mad."
Without noticing it they both drifted toward each other until there was only a few inches separating them. The last words Callie uttered were barely above a whisper and if Arizona hadn't been so close she wouldn't have heard them.
Arizona brought her hand to Callie's cheek and smiled sadly at her. "Yeah… but it's too late now." Tonight wasn't the first time that she wished that things happened differently. Maybe if Callie received just one of her letters things would be so much more different and she wouldn't be this sad. She looked Callie in the eyes and she could see the same sadness. Perhaps the brunette was thinking the same thing. But like she said now it was too late, Callie moved on and was happy with someone else. "Can I- uh can I hug you?" She didn't know what came over her but she thought about how it would probably be the last time that she'll ever be this close to her Calliope, and she suddenly wanted more. She wanted to feel her body pressed against hers one last time.
To her surprise Callie didn't answer, she simply opened her arms and wrapped them around Arizona's neck. As soon as their bodies touched Arizona felt the spark that she always felt and immediately wrapped her arms Callie's torso bringing her even closer. Arizona rested her chin on the brunette's shoulder and closed her eyed trying to take everything in. She breathed the familiar smell of Callie and she was sure that if she kept her eyes closed long enough, it would feel like they were both 20 years old and everything was alright. Arizona didn't know what came over her but she couldn't control her body anymore and she found her lips being pressed against Callie's nape. She let her lips linger a little on the spot and felt the brunette shiver before she released her and took a step back.
Arizona could see the blush on the brunette's face and she knew exactly what caused it. She chose to simply ignore it and leave before she broke down in tears in front of Callie. "Goodnight Calliope." She said with her voice cracking and tears filling her eyes. She didn't give Callie the chance to answer before she turned around and left.
Callie Torres:
The minute she closed the door she released a sigh trying to get her heart beating at a normal rate.
She was over Arizona, then why her heart kept beating like a hammer every time she was close to the blonde? Why did her brain transformed into mush when she felt the blonde's body perfectly fit with her own? Why couldn't she control her feelings? So many questions and so little answers.
She went to the living room and plopped down next to Mark. Taking the beer from his hand she settled her legs over his lap and took a big gulp of the beverage. From the corner of her eye she could see Mark looking at her with a smirk plastered on his face that always managed to annoy her.
"Shut up." She warned him.
"I didn't even say anything." He said raising his hands in surrender.
"You don't need to, your face is telling me everything I need to know."
"Ok then, you know that my face is asking, what took you so long to just say goodbye to blondie?" He said with a raised eyebrow. Callie didn't respond she preferred to ignore him and pretend to be watching TV. She could still feel Mark penetrating gaze, making her feel naked. "You still love her don't you?" He then finally said making Callie choke on her beer.
"Wh-what?!" She said coughing and laughing at the same time. Mark didn't repeat himself to her, he just gave her a look as if to say 'you heard me. "No I don't, I love Kate." She responded making him scoff.
"Do you?" he asked her and added before she could answer. "Look Kate is nice and all but we both know that you've never been head over heels in love with her."
"Maybe but she's safe. I know that she won't up and leave one day without telling me and she loves me, she treats me right." Callie said trying to defend her relationship without denying the fact that she wasn't in love with Kate. She loved Kate, she really did, and it was simple with her even if it wasn't the case right now, but that was because of her, not Kate. The redhead had always been honest and wasn't afraid of communicating.
"Yeah but Arizona told you why she left-" Mark tried to say.
"Are you taking her side?!" Callie asked now angry, and stood up from the couch.
"No, I'm always on your side you know that. I'm just saying she had a good reason to leave and she tried to contact you." Mark said, he could see that Callie was getting angrier with him. What he didn't tell her was that he talked to Teddy not long ago and she told him what Arizona was like when they were together in the Marines and how her father was. It made him sad to see such great love tainted by the actions of a sick bastard and he wanted her best friend happy. He didn't want her to just settle with someone nice and pass on the love of her life. He knew very well that the universe was cruel and that you could lose your soulmate in the brink of an eye. Kate was nice but she needed to go. "Just put you in her place and think of what you would have done if it was you." With that he stood up and kissed Callie on the fore head before saying goodbye.
"Just think about it." He said just before he was out of sight.
"Ugh..." Callie groaned once he was gone and plopped back on the couch, tired of this day. Her emotions were all over the place and she was confused not knowing what to feel.
She just wanted this day to end.
Arizona Robbins:
When Arizona came home she was attack by her mother asking for picture of her grandchild. The only thing she wanted to do was go to sleep but instead she stayed up with her mother and Teddy talking about Sofia and showing them pictures, her mother gushing at every one of them making them laugh. Even though she was happy showing off her daughter, Arizona was tired and she couldn't be more relieved when she finally slipped under the covers of her bed. She felt all the pressure of the day leave her body and her body transforming into goo.
She thought about the day she couldn't wait to see her daughter again and about Callie.
Calliope, she looked happy, she seemed happy with Kate and the redhead seemed nice to Arizona. From the little talk they had, the redhead didn't seem malicious or anything. She just asked her how her recovery was doing and if she was happy to be back. She also told her that she was glad that Sofia finally had the other parent she always wanted to have and thanked her for making her happy. At first Arizona didn't know why she thanked her but then seeing how Kate looked at Sofia she could see that the redhead really cared about the little girl and that she really loved Callie.
She won't lie and say that knowing that someone else was making Callie happy didn't hurt because it did. It hurt so fucking much but she couldn't do anything about it. She should've know that Callie would've moved on and she was happy that Callie was happy. Her whole life she wanted Callie to be happy. Even though she always thought she'll be the one making her happy, she was glad that Kate was there to help Callie when she wasn't there.
Now the only proof that their love was ever real was the perfect little girl that they created together. Sofia made her feel things she never thought she could feel and she knew that now she couldn't live without her and that she would make everything in her power to make her the happiest little girl in the whole world.
After six years of waiting to come back to Callie and to the life she left behind, Arizona came back to something completely different. If Callie had moved on and was happy, it was maybe time for to move on too. At the thought a tear fell down Arizona's cheek that she didn't bother to wipe out. She knew it wouldn't be easy but it was the healthiest thing she could do. She couldn't spend the rest of her life pinning after someone that she couldn't have anymore.
That night, Arizona fell asleep thinking about all the wonderful years she had with Callie by her side.
Yeah, it would hard to move on.
Arizona took a deep breath and made the ball bounce once again trying to concentrate on the shoot. Everybody around her was yelling and sheering and she closed her eyes trying to drown them out.
It was their last game of the basketball season and she couldn't be the reason her team lost. They were playing home, both scores were the same and to add to the pressure there was only 2 seconds left to the game.
She had already failed her first shoot, she had to succeed the second one. She turned her head to look at the crowd and searched for her. The only person who could calm her and make her feel as if she would do anything.
When she found her, her Calliope, and their eyes lock it was as if they were the only one in the gymnasium. Callie smile at her and winked before mouthing 'I love you'. As soon as Arizona saw the words leave the brunette's mouth she felt her heart sore and felt like she was reborn. She mouthed an 'I love you too' to her girlfriend before turning back to the net.
She took a deep breath before shooting the ball. She held her breath as she watched the ball touched the ring and turn around it a few times before it finally went inside.
She stood there frozen as the whole gymnasium erupted in cheers. It wasn't until she felt the player of her team all jump on her and cheering that Arizona took a deep breath before joining them in the celebration.
After congratulating the other team and celebrating with her friends
Oand the whole high school, Arizona found herself alone in the changing room's shower. everyone having already showered and changed she could enjoy a nice shower in peace and quiet.
A few minutes after Arizona slipped in the shower she tensed felling a naked body pressed against hers. However, she immediately relaxed when she felt the person press kisses all over her neck and shoulder.
"Mmm..." She moaned. "...Lucy stop, my girlfriend could see us" She said jokingly. She wasn't disappointed when the girl behind her bit her shoulder making Arizona moaned louder. "Ok, ok I'm joking." She said before turning to face her girlfriend looking her up and down and biting her bottom lip.
"You're a jerk, you know that?" Callie asked her doing the same.
"Yeah but I'm your jerk." Arizona said sweetly before connecting their lips in a rough and passionate kiss.
It didn't take long before they were both groping and grinding each other. Arizona was now fully hard and her member was pressing against Callie's hip. They have done things but they never went all the way. They were waiting for the right moment.
Lately it was getting harder and harder for Arizona to control herself. Callie was getting her mad and she found herself taking cold showers more often.
She had to slow things down because she knew if things kept going she won't be able to stop herself. It took all she had in her to separate herself from the goddess in front of her. When she saw the look of hurt in Callie eyes, Arizona immediately brought her hand to the brunette's cheek before justifying herself.
"You're making me crazy, Calliope." She sighed. Callie looked down at Arizona's member making it throb.
A devilish smile came over Callie's face before she took a step closer to Arizona making her back press against the cold tile wall. "Let me take care of you baby." Callie said pressing her body against the blonde's "You earned it." She added before taking Arizona's member in her hand.
Slowly she started stroking it up and down making Arizona release a loud moan. Callie took this opportunity to plunge her tongue in Arizona' mouth swallowing her moans.
Callie sped her stroking while she was grinding on Arizona's leg. She adapted the stroking rhythm to her grinding. Arizona broke their kiss to attack Callie's neck.
Arizona was on the brink of coming and she could feel that Callie was too by how loud her moans were. When Arizona's release came she bit hard on Callie's shoulder making it the loudest moan before falling over the edge too. Being under the water spray removed all evidence of their activity.
Callie let her body fall over Arizona and both fell to the ground, their legs no longer able to maintain them.
"Thank you baby." Arizona said peppering Callie's face with kisses. "I love you."
"I love you too." Callie said content in Arizona's arms.
A/N: please don't freak out about Arizona's silly idea :)
